Unpack
Note: Do not open the ink bottles until you are ready to fill the ink
tanks. The ink bottles are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.
Note: Refer to the color-coded sticker on the ink tank unit to
identify the color of each tank.
2 Unpack the black (BK) ink bottle. Hold the ink bottle
upright and slowly turn the bottle cap to remove it.
Caution: Do not shake or squeeze the ink bottles. Do not touch
the top of the ink bottle after its cap is removed.
3 Place the top of the ink bottle on the filling port, then
slowly stand the bottle upright to insert it, as shown.
Remove all protective materials from the product.
Note: Do not turn on the product yet.

Fill ink tanks
Warning: Keep the ink bottles out of the reach of children and do not
drink the ink.
Caution: This product requires careful handling of ink. If ink spills,
wipe it off immediately with a damp towel to avoid permanent stains. If
ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
Note:
• Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-genuine ink.
• Use the ink bottles included with the printer to set up the product.
Part of the ink will be used to charge the print head. These bottles
will print fewer pages compared with subsequent ink bottles.
Note: Do not force the bottles into position; they are keyed for
each color.
4 Wait for the ink to fill the tank. Do not squeeze the bottle.
Note: Ink flows into the tank and stops automatically when the
ink tank is filled to the upper line. If ink does not flow from the
bottle, lift and reinsert the bottle.
5 When the ink tank is full, remove the ink bottle and
securely close it with the bottle cap.
11 Select your language, country, date, and time.
Note: You can change these settings later using the product’s
control panel. For more information see the online User’s Guide.
12 When instructed to see the Start Here sheet, press and
hold the help button for 5 seconds.
Note: Do not leave the ink bottle inserted; otherwise the bottle
may be damaged or ink may leak. If any ink remains in the bottle,
store the bottle upright and top off the ink tank after completing
initial setup. See the online User’s Guide for instructions.
6 Close the black ink tank cap.
7 Repeat the previous steps for the other colors.

remaining ink. See the online User’s Guide for instructions.
Caution: Do not unplug or turn off the product, or open the
inner cover while the product is charging or you’ll waste ink.
